Indian Industries, founded in 1945 is the oldest handicrafts shop in Fort Cochin and Mattancherry. Functioning from a 400 year old Dutch building, this shop has seen it all; from the sleepy one horse town that Fort Cochin once was to the bustling tourist spot that is today. Though the streets and surroundings have witnessed umpteen changes, Indian Industries by and large remains the same. It’s a store where time has not spoilt nor changed things despite the sea of change seen all around. Shopping is never a hassle or a chore here, but on the contrary a pleasure, as one can browse leisurely. Our visitors' book and press write ups bear testimony to the rave reviews we have received through the years from those who have visited us.The shops sells silver, stone, white metal and camel bone jewelery; wooden and brass figures; cloth paper machie, laq and leather hangings; life like rose wood elephants; antique finish goods; bell metal and brass wares; furniture and screen; bags, purses and pouches, wooden toys, souvenirs, trinkets and lots more.

Jo took us to see a temple festival but unfortunately due to an elephant not behaving itself (apparently, injured some spectators half an hour before we got there), we weren't able to do that. We con..."tinued on to the backwater river cruise which was fabulous. Saw lots of different types of buildings from there that we wouldn't normally see. Jo stopped to get us a little snack in the form of bananas, which went down a treat! Went on for lunch at the Vedic village which was an oasis in the middle of nowhere - what a fab place. Delicious meal. Throughout the tour Jo was very informative and very funny. Can't recommend this company and Jo enough. We were all very tired and hot by the end of the tour but we were topped up with lots of water and high energy from Jo that we didn't mind the heat. I've probably forgotten loads of little things but I just remember that it was one of the bes...
